Stevie





















I turned around, 
And the water was closing all around, 
Like a glove, 
Like the love that had 
Finally, finally found me.
And I knew, 
In the crystalline knowledge of you. 
Drove me through the mountains, 
Through the crystal like a clear water fountain, 
Drove me like a magnet, to the sea.

Postsecret












This is my favourite one ever.

It's me and the moon.





















And it's over, just started.
Her blood stained the carpet, her heart like a crystal
She's lucid and departed
A life left behind, she can't find in her mind
Gone away.
Away with suburbia, away with these nightmares
Shake them away.
You marry a role and you give up your soul 'til you break down.

Brigitte





















"There's something stronger than me which makes me do stupid things. It's as if I'm going to die tomorrow."


Brigitte Bardot

I wish I didn't relate to this, but I do.

Laura












Slain
By your zirconium smile,
I was slain by your olivine eyes.
Slain,
I was lying in piles,
Hoping shovels would cast me in.
Furnaces burn everlasting.

Black tattoos of you onto me.

I am I am I am
















"I didn't want my picture taken because I was going to cry. I didn't know why I was going to cry, but I knew that if anybody spoke to me or looked at me too closely the tears would fly out my eyes and the sobs would fly out of my throat and I'd cry for a week. I could feel the tears brimming and sloshing in me like water in glass that is unsteady and too full."


by Sylvia Plath.

In the beginning.
















It was hard, bittersweet, and full of wrong turns.

This leaves me full of optimism...
